News at The Gem Shop, Inc.

Friday, February 11, 2011

Last night Mike Hoffman, a shipping executive, visited our showroom and told us this tale.
He had worked all day providing solutions to the many shipping problem of the Tucson Show and collapsed into bed at 12:30am. At 2:30am his cellphone rang. When he answered, he heard the buzzing and beeping of a fax machine at the other end. Such is life at the Tucson Show.
